This is a used out-of-production Dean Rhapsody 12-String Bass (2019). It is in excellent condition and is extremely fun to play.
It features a beautifully sculpted Mahogany body with a Maple top. 34″ scale Maple and Walnut neck. The bass also features black Grover tuners, EMG-HZ pickups with a Dean 3D preamp, as well as a Dean 2-piece anchor bridge. The Rhapsody 12 incorporates relatively wide spaces between the 4 string courses, which helps you play each note group cleanly. 12 strings are strung as 4 groups of 3, which requires a little practice to master.
Solid body 12 string basses became popular after luminaries such as Tom Petersson of Cheap Trick, Allen Woody of The Allman Brothers, Jeff Ament of Pearl Jam and Doug Pinnick of King’s X started using them to great effect in their bands.
12 string basses have a powerful and completely unique voice that cannot be achieved by any other bass. And this one sounds spectacular.
